Recruitment to the nuclear periphery enhances repression of H3K9me2-marked genes and transposons to shape cell fate [CUT&Run II]

ABSTRACT: Heterochromatic loci marked by histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) are enriched at the nuclear periphery in metazoans, but the effect of spatial position on heterochromatin function has not been defined. Here, we remove three nuclear lamins and lamin B receptor (LBR) in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) and show that heterochromatin detaches from the nuclear periphery. Mutant mESCs sustain naïve pluripotency and maintain H3K9me2 across the genome but cannot repress H3K9me2-marked genes or transposons. Further, mutant cells fail to differentiate into epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs), a transition that requires the expansion of H3K9me2 across the genome. Mutant EpiLCs can silence naïve pluripotency genes and activate epiblast-stage genes. However, H3K9me2 cannot repress markers of alternative fates, including primitive endoderm. We conclude that the nuclear periphery controls the spatial position, dynamic remodeling, and repressive capacity of H3K9me2-marked heterochromatin to shape cell fate decisions.

Recruitment to the nuclear periphery enhances repression of H3K9me2-marked genes and transposons to shape cell fate [CUT&RUN]

Project description:Heterochromatic loci marked by histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2) are enriched at the nuclear periphery in metazoans, but the functional importance of this organization is unknown. Both the nuclear lamins and the nuclear membrane protein lamin B receptor (LBR) have been linked to heterochromatin positioning in mammals, yet embryonic stem cells (mESCs) lacking all lamins retain both LBR and H3K9me2 at the nuclear periphery. We ablated LBR in this context and show that heterochromatin detaches from the nuclear periphery in lamin + LBR quadruple knockout (QKO) cells. QKO mESCs sustain naïve pluripotency and maintain H3K9me2 at normal levels across the genome but cannot repress H3K9me2-marked genes or transposons. Further, their capacity to differentiate into epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs) is impaired. While normal EpiLCs expand H3K9me2 across the genome, QKO EpiLCs exhibit abnormal patterning of this mark. QKO cells can exit naïve pluripotency and activate epiblast-stage genes but also express markers of alternative fates including the primitive endoderm. These results establish that recruitment of H3K9me2 to the nuclear periphery controls the spatial position, dynamic remodeling, and repressive capacity of this mark to shape cell fate decisions.

Quantitative Dynamics of Chromatin Remodeling during Germ Cell Specification from Mouse Embryonic Stem Cells

Project description:Germ cell specification is accompanied by epigenetic remodeling, the scale and specificity of which are unclear. Here, we quantitatively delineate chromatin dynamics during induction of mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) to epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs) and from there into primordial germ cell-like cells (PGCLCs), revealing large-scale reorganization of chromatin signatures including H3K27me3 and H3K9me2 patterns. EpiLCs contain abundant bivalent gene promoters characterized by low H3K27me3, indicating a state primed for differentiation. PGCLCs initially lose H3K4me3 from many bivalent genes but subsequently regain this mark with concomitant upregulation of H3K27me3, particularly at developmental regulatory genes. PGCLCs progressively lose H3K9me2, including at lamina-associated perinuclear heterochromatin, resulting in changes in nuclear architecture. T recruits H3K27ac to activate BLIMP1 and early mesodermal programs during PGCLC specification, which is followed by BLIMP1-mediated repression of a broad range of targets, possibly through recruitment and spreading of H3K27me3. These findings provide a foundation for reconstructing regulatory networks of the germline epigenome.

Lineage-specific reorganization of nuclear peripheral heterochromatin and H3K9me2 domains

Project description:Dynamic and regulated organization of chromatin within the 3-dimensional space of the nucleus has been postulated to contribute to gene accessibility, gene expression, and cell fate. Here we define the genome-wide lineage-specific reorganization of nuclear peripheral heterochromatin as a multipotent P19 embryocarcinoma cell adopts either a neural or a cardiac fate. We demonstrate that H3K9me2 marked nuclear peripheral heterochromatin undergoes lineage-specific local reorganization during cell fate determination. Lineage-specific loss of H3K9me2 is associated with spatial repositioning of genomic loci away from the nuclear periphery as shown by high-resolution 3D immuno-fluorescence in situ hybridization (3D immuno-FISH). The lineage-specific repositioning of loci away from the nuclear periphery is not always associated with activation of gene expression, but a subset of these genes is transcriptionally activated. Master regulator Mef2c is specifically repositioned from nuclear periphery during early neurogenic differentiation, but not early cardiogenic differentiation, with associated transcript upregulation. Master regulator Myocd is specifically repositioned during early cardiogenic differentiation, but not early neurogenic differentiation, and is transcriptionally upregulated at later stages of cardiac differentiation. These results provide experimental evidence for lineage-specific regulation of nuclear architecture when the same multipotent progenitor cell adopts distinct fates.

Role of Prdm16 in fibro-adipogenic progenitors

Project description:Here, we identified Prdm16 as a FAPs-enriched factor that mediates their developmental capacities by modulating H3K9me2-marked heterochromatin organization at the nuclear lamina. We show that deletion of Prdm16 prevents FAPs adipogenic differentiation and unlocks a myogenic capacity. We found that Prdm16 localizes at the nuclear lamina where it cooperates with the H3K9 methyltransferases (KMTs), G9a and GLP, to mediate H3K9me2 deposition.

G9a selectively represses a class of late-replicating genes at the nuclear periphery (Expression)

Project description:We have investigated the role of the histone methyltransferase G9a in the establishment of silent nuclear compartments. Following conditional knockout of the G9a methyltransferase in mouse ESCs, 167 genes were significantly up-regulated, and no genes were strongly down-regulated. A partially overlapping set of 119 genes were up-regulated after differentiation of G9a-depleted cells to neural precursors. Promoters of these G9a-repressed genes were AT rich and H3K9me2 enriched but H3K4me3 depleted and were not highly DNA methylated. Representative genes were found to be close to the nuclear periphery, which was significantly enriched for G9a-dependent H3K9me2. Strikingly, although 73% of total genes were early replicating, more than 71% of G9a-repressed genes were late replicating, and a strong correlation was found between H3K9me2 and late replication. However, G9a loss did not significantly affect subnuclear position or replication timing of any non-pericentric regions of the genome, nor did it affect programmed changes in replication timing that accompany differentiation. We conclude that G9a is a gatekeeper for a specific set of genes localized within the late replicating nuclear periphery. 4 cell states each in duplicate (i.e. a total of 8 individual replicates)

Effect of overexpession of Stonewall (Stwl) on gene expression in germline stem cell (GSC)-like cells compared to the control

Project description:The association of genomic loci to the nuclear periphery is proposed to facilitate cell type-specific gene repression and influence cell fate decisions. However, the interplay between gene position and expression remains incompletely understood, in part because the proteins that position genomic loci at the nuclear periphery remain unidentified. Here, we used an Oligopaint-based HiDRO screen targeting ∼1000 genes to discover novel regulators of nuclear architecture in Drosophila cells.We identified the heterochromatin-associated protein Stonewall (Stwl) as a factor promoting perinuclear chromatin positioning. In female germline stem cells (GSCs), Stwl binds and positions chromatin loci, including GSC differentiation genes, at the nuclear periphery. Strikingly, Stwl-dependent perinuclear positioning is associated with transcriptional repression, highlighting a likely mechanism for Stwl’s known role in GSC maintenance and ovary homeostasis. Thus, our study identifies perinuclear anchors in Drosophila and demonstrates the importance of gene repression at the nuclear periphery for cell fate.
